Old Porch Swing Songtext
von Tony Jackson

Mama used to love to reminisce
She′d sat out on the porch on lights like this
She'd tell me about her favorite things in life
Like honeysuckle, rain, and fireflies

Out on that old porch swing
I learned everything
How to laugh and how to love
And who I am and who′s up above
Everything in between
Out on that old porch swing

Sixteen, summertime, and Friday night
My daddy's guitar, couple Cokes, and all the guys
The hours passed like cars through midnight air
The first tunes that I ever played were there


Out on that old porch swing
I played everything
Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stevie Ray
Some old Garth Brooks, a little Hank
Everything in between
Out on that old porch swing

And my mind would just go rockin' back and forth
To the memories I made on my front porch

The first time that I looked into her eyes
She was close enough to press her lips to mine
We were swingin′ through the night, hand in hand
It′s where the best chapter in my life began

Out on that old porch swing
I had everything
My first love and my first kiss
What I'd wanted and what I′d missed
Everything in between
Out on that old
And I love that old
And I miss that old porch swing
